Selling prices are very sensitive issues for understanding the profit analysis. These all formulas can determine the selling price as well as the profit percentage of the product that affects the purchasing system.

Mathematical expression of the selling price with example 

According to the selling price, 

Profit= selling price- cost price

The mathematical expression of the selling price with example is given below, 

Question

 June marks all his products 40% above the cost price or listed price. After that, it offers a discount of 20% on the cost price. He will earn a profit of 20% then what is the percentage of the profit that he earns?

Solve 

Assumed that, the cost price of the product 100

Therefore, the listed price = 100+40% of cost price

= 100+40

=140

However, selling price= cost price-discount

=140- 20% of 140

=140-140*20/100

=140-28

=112

Now, profit=selling price- cost price

=112-100

=12

So, the percentage of the profit is 12%, not 20%

Based on this mathematical expression we can easily determine any information about selling and it can help to understand the profit rate on selling.
